rAVe Education Edition

Hello everyone! In this latest newsletter, Scott Tiner offers a (somewhat spicy) take on why building management and AV should be separate — at least in universities. Are the in-house AV team on these campuses already doing too much probably? Yes. But that’s not the only reason Tiner says he doesn’t think these two industries should mix. Read more here.

For our second piece this time, Clara Mello takes us down memory lane for a quick recap of LAVNCH WEEK 11’s Day One. Read it and you can watch the whole thing on demand here if you missed it.

Enjoy!
